Akhtar Ansari
aarzu ko ruuh men gham ban ke rahna aa gaya
sahte sahte ham ko aḳhir ranj sahna aa gaya
dil ka ḳhuun ankhon men khinch aaya chalo achchha hua
meri ankhon ko mira ahval kahna aa gaya
sahl ho jaegi mushkil zabt soz o saaz ki
ḳhun-e-dil ko aankh se jis roz bahna aa gaya
main kisi se apne dil ki baat kah sakta na tha
ab suḳhan ki aaḌ men kya kuchh na kahna aa gaya
jab se munh ko lag gai ‘aḳhtar’ mohabbat ki sharab
be-piye aThon pahar madhosh rahna aa gaya
